Re: X-rite 880

2009-05-19 by dlruckus

While you're working at that why don't you simply use the X-rite Toolcrib program with X-key or any comm program with file capture to place your readings into an ordinary text file and Argyl can use that data as input via indirection on the command line. Any functional instrument can be used in that manner.

I didn't know that Argyl could do B&W profiles or take density readings as d'log values. Wouldn't you need to convert the data to Lab first?

Regards,
Duane

To create the linearization transforms, there is also a program called ArgyllCMS that runs under BSD/Linux which can control some similar X-rite instruments and I am hoping to dig into its source code and modify that to use it for controlling and reading the x-880.
